The correct answer is: It reduced coast-to-coast communication from months to weeks.

Indeed, before the Transcontinental Railroad was completed it might take a traveler or settler months to do the same trip by wagon cart and weeks by boat through South America. By train it would take a traveler about two weeks to go from New York to San Francisco and in 1876 a train called the Transcontinental Express made the trip from New York to San Francisco in 83 hours and 39 minutes. It was not a regular train but a publicity stunt but it did show that the feat was possible.

Allisa [31]
If this is refering to the Second World War, regardless the creation of the German Bizmark, Hitlers “new deal” program was to restart the German economy. While it did contribute tension between the great powers in Europe, Hitler had youth traning programs and engineered tanks that were far superior than what France and the British had. There was and agreement between the European powers that limited naval guns to less than 13mm (which Germany spat on by equipping the Bizmark with 15mm), to reduce world tension.
